  Scribus can compress PNGs, but the default is to generate uncompressed
files?  And it's considered acceptable to label the compression ratio of
an uncompressed image format as "Quality"?  And this is a "matter of
opinion"?

  Words fail me.  If this is the attitude upstream has, I don't think
it's worth the trouble to try to bring this to their attention.
